Ingredients
Scale
Pie Dough
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup ice water
Filling
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Prepare the pie dough: In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until dough begins to hold together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll the chilled dough out to about 1/8 inch thickness. Use a round cutter or a glass to cut out circles approximately 4 to 5 inches in diameter.
- Fill the hand pies: Place a tablespoon of chocolate chips and a handful of mini marshmallows in the center of half the dough circles, leaving room on the edges to seal.
- Seal the pies: Brush edges lightly with water, then place another dough circle on top. Press the edges together with a fork to seal well and prevent filling from leaking.
- Bake: Transfer the prepared hand pies to the baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pies are golden brown.
- Cool and serve: Let the hand pies cool slightly on a wire rack before serving to allow the filling to set and avoid burns.
Notes
- For extra golden pies, brush the tops with a beaten egg before baking.
- You can substitute chocolate chips with your favorite chocolate bars chopped into smaller pieces.
- Mini marshmallows melt better and distribute more evenly inside the hand pies.
- These pies can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
